Dua Lipa and Callum Turner were seen together for the first time following their surprise wedding over the weekend. The couple appeared happy and affectionate in new photos taken post their recent nuptials.
After their star-studded wedding in the UK last weekend, the pair was spotted enjoying a leisurely dog walk under the sunny skies of Britain. They are now preparing for a second wedding celebration, this time in Italy, surrounded by more family and famous friends.
The chosen Italian wedding venue, Villa Valguarnera in Bagheria, has a rich history and is considered the “most romantic villa in Sicily.” Dua and Callum, who visited Palermo last summer, will hold their ceremony and reception at this picturesque location.
The guest list for the event includes top names in showbiz like Elton John, who collaborated with Dua Lipa on a song. Private jets are reportedly being used to transport the three hundred guests to the venue.
Villa Valguarnera, an 18th-century building, has been featured in various films and TV shows, including The White Lotus. However, it was also associated with the Sicilian Mafia in the past, being a meeting point for the Cosa Nostra.
Despite its dark history, the villa’s current owner, Vittoria Alliata di Villafranca, has reclaimed the property from the mafia and now carefully selects renters. Bagheria, once part of Sicily’s notorious “Triangle of Death,” is now rebuilding its reputation with the help of events like Dua Lipa’s wedding.
The upcoming weekend-long celebration is estimated to cost £1 million, with tight security measures in place. The wedding has generated significant buzz, with many eagerly anticipating the glamorous affair.
Dua Lipa’s connection to the city of Palermo and her support for the local community have endeared her to the residents. However, details of the wedding are closely guarded, with confidentiality agreements in place for attendees.
